Project Firewall: What Employers Need to Know About DOL’s New H-1B Compliance Initiative

About

The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) has recently launched Project Firewall, a nationwide initiative aimed at strengthening the integrity of employment and immigration compliance through H-1 B enforcement. This move signals a new era of scrutiny for employers, focusing on how organizations manage Form I-9, E-Verify, and Public Access Files (PAFs).

In this webinar, Krishna Garimella, CEO of OnBlick Inc., will explain what Project Firewall is, its purpose, and its implications for U.S. employers. He’ll explain how this initiative changes the compliance environment, how government investigations will proceed, and how businesses can prepare for potential audits and data validation checks under the new framework.

The session will also highlight practical steps to assess your organization’s readiness, strengthen internal documentation, and leverage technology to minimize compliance risks.
Reserve your spot to stay informed and ahead of enforcement activity.
